Zusammenfassung:One or more processors determine a throughput of hardware devices operatively coupled to a target Storage Area Network (SAN) prior to a SAN migration from a source SAN to the target SAN. Buffers within a processor core in the source SAN contain intermediate execution outputs of components within the processor core. The processor(s) determine an estimated time duration required to retrieve the soft state from a central processing unit (CPU) queue in the source SAN processor and to migrate the soft state of the processor core from the source SAN to the target SAN, in order to determine an estimated size and time of the SAN migration from the source SAN to the target SAN. The processor(s) then configure transmission resources available to the source SAN to comport with the estimated size and time of the SAN migration from the source SAN to the target SAN.
